Op-ed: 
Stopping Obama's Executive Orders    
By: Diane Sori

“But what I’m not going to do is just wait for the GOP to pass an immigration bill."                          - Barack HUSSEIN Obama at Wednesday's press conference after being steamrolling by the Republicans  
                                                                     
Whew...we did it and we did it BIG! The Republicans are back in control of the Senate and have the largest majority in the House since the Hoover era. In other words, Barack HUSSEIN Obama and his failed politics and policies have, for the most part, been rendered politically impotent.

But true to form, at Wednesday's press conference, Obama tried to blame everybody but himself for the Republican steamrolling his politics and policies got. Saying, "The election results are clear. I still have a mandate for my polices from the two-thirds of Americans who didn't vote," Obama just does NOT get that it's quite the opposite...those NOT voting were his very own sheeple, kool-aders, and party loyalists.

And with the Republican victory...a victory BIGGER than even the talking heads had predicted...America loudly told Obama that they totally reject him and his politics and policies. And with the Republicans now giving new meaning to the words 'lame duck,' this most miserable excuse of a president still, unfortunately, has the power of the veto along with his infamous 'pen and phone'...which gives him the ability to issue Executive Orders ad-nauseum. And we know Obama will issue a plethora of Executive Orders as 'payback'...as revenge... to hurt 'We the People' for daring to cross him by voting against him. And while Executive Orders are technically policy or procedure issued by the president that apply only to Executive Branch employees...they are now being used to direct certain 'tasks or actions' to Cabinet members along with some Executive Orders having the 'force of law' after being approved by the Senate and/or the House...and it's this approval that must be stopped.

But even with all this leeway of sorts, Obama is forgetting two important things... Congress knows that his Executive Orders come from a desire to bypass them and that just like Executive Orders can be made into law they also can be overturned... that is if this new Congress is serious about undoing the damage this man has done to our country. First thing they must understand is that any Executive Order that has any effect on individuals that are NOT government employees is a violation of Article I Section I of the Constitution, meaning Congress has a responsibility to both 'We the People' and the Constitution to veto any Executive Order that has any effect on any non-governmental employees.

And while Executive Orders, most of the time, are quite innocuous in their intent even though they might be used to create major policy changes, we must fear Obama's Executive Orders for they are maliciously and deliberately being used against the American people for nefarious purposes. Case in point...Obama plans before this year's end to grant amnesty to at least 11 million ILLEGALS currently residing in this country and doing so through Exec­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­utive Order even though two out of three Americans are opposed to this.

And while there is NO specific provision in the Constitution that permits amnesty per se, there is a "grant of executive power" given in Article II of the Constitution which allows Obama some degree of 'discretionary power' in issuing this order if he deems it to be both 'necessary and proper.'  In fact, Article II, Section 2 of the Constitution gives Obama broad pardon powers even to those breaking federal laws, however, this is negated by the fact that Obama has NOT enforced the immigration laws currently on the books. And with Article II Section 3 listing the duties of the president, the next from last clause clearly states that “the president must take care that laws are faithfully executed." So if Obama modifies in any way the current immigration laws on the books through Executive Order, or if he chooses to selectively enforce only certain provisions of said laws through Executive Order, he is then in direct violation of this clause thus making his Executive Order null and void.

And adding to Obama's possible chagrin is the fact that Executive Orders...even those orders issued by the man who thinks himself America's king...are subject to judicial review. And this means Obama's Executive Orders can be struck down and rendered null and void if the Supreme Court deems said orders to be unsupported by statute. And this is one critical reason why Obama wants to stack the highest court in our land with left-leaning liberal judges.

And with any Executive Order issued by Obama needing to find support either in the Constitution through a clause granting him a specific power, or by the delegation of said power by Congress to him...if said support cannot be found and Obama issues the order anyway, Congress itself can overturn the Executive Order by simply overturning parts of the order instead of going after the finalized order itself. For example, if the Executive Order is based on a statute, Congress can change that statute, thus nullifying the order. Or Congress can refuse to fund any activities that derive from all or part of said order. And the only way this would NOT apply is if Obama acts according to an exclusive power granted to him by the Constitution.

Simply, this means that any of Obama's Executive Orders can be overturned by either the Supreme Court through a specific case brought in front of them, or by Congress passing legislation that would conflict with the order by their refusing to approve or appropriate funding to enforce the order.

And while Obama could and would veto any such ruling from Congress, Congress can still override his veto with a two-thirds majority that would nullify any Executive Order he issued. And even with the huge Republican win this past Tuesday, such an action would still require a super majority vote...meaning some Democrats would have to crossover and vote with the Republicans. But please remember, this is NOT an impossibility as the Democrats coming up for re-election in 2016 might fear the mandate 'We the People' just sent to Obama and the left enough to realize that they would be next if they went against the wishes of the American people and sided with the now politically toxic Barack HUSSEIN Obama.

But there is another way Obama could grant amnesty to the 11 million ILLEGALS if he chose NOT to go the Executive Order route...he could issue a 'policy directive' but that too would give Congress the same authority to get rid of all or part of said directive the same way they could override an Executive Order...that is if they have the backbone to ignore the race card that would be thrown at them and do so.

So while Obama keeps bloviating that he thinks it's safe to say that he's shown a lot of patience in regards to the Republicans stonewalling immigration reform and to the criticism he's received over his issuing of numerous Executive Orders, I think I've shown a lot of patience by NOT saying until now that Barack HUSSEIN Obama is totally and completely full of_______well you guys fill in the blank with your own choice of the many descriptive words that I'm sure come to mind.

Op-ed:

Obama's Politics and Policies are Indeed on November's Ballot

By: Diane Sori

Let's get something straight right upfront...Barack HUSSEIN Obama has NO love for America, Americans, our military or our veterans, Israel or any of our other true allies, nor does he hold any affinity whatsoever for Christians and Jews...period. Barack HUSSEIN Obama is indeed (I believe) a muslim and a supporter of all things islamic... of all things counter to the Judeo-Christian principals, morals, and values upon which this great nation was founded...and the fabric of our American society in his eyes would be better served by prayer rugs extending from one coast of America to the other.

Barack HUSSEIN Obama's presidency is a failure...a complete and total failure. The man who promised 'hope and change' instead has delivered NOTHING but 'distrust, stagnation, utter despair, and disgust.'

And his response to the anger building NOT just amongst Republicans and TEA Party members but even amongst some of his own party's loyal has shown that this man elected to the highest office in our land...or should I say this man who stole an election through voter fraud and intimidation, machine tampering, and the dead rising from their slumber to vote...has proven time and again that America's enemies are indeed his trusted friends and allies.

And while the name Barack HUSSEIN Obama might NOT be on the November ballot, know that his politics and policies...both domestic and foreign...sure the hell are.

On the domestic front, we all know Obama's so-touted economic recovery is anything but...that the jobs numbers released every week are in reality numbers that hide the all important truth that more Americans are dropping out of the work force then ever before or are being demoted to part-time employment.

And need I mention the word 'ObamaCare'...the anything but "if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor...if you like your insurance you can keep your insurance" plan, complete with its anything but cost effective continuing to rise premiums...complete with its 'death panels' that some of us have already, unfortunately, witnessed in action.

And lest we forget his plan to grant amnesty through his 'pen and his phone' to 34 million ILLEGALS so that they can compete for and take away jobs from mostly the poor and his own core black base. And we know this is being done solely to increase the Democratic voting block for generations to come as these people...these now 'LEGAL ILLEGALS' will gladly sell their souls and their votes to the Democratic party in exchange for even more freebies and handouts then they now already readily and greedily receive.    

Simply put...jobs for Americans be damned...jobs in exchange for votes will become both this administration's and any future Democratic administration's mantra as taking jobs away from LEGAL Americans will well fulfill their goal of having our economy limp along until it finally just gives out and crashes.

And what of Obama's anti-military agenda...his tying of our troops hands so they cannot fight to win...his defaming attacks on both those currently wearing our nation's uniform and on our vets...his cutting our fighting forces to record low numbers along with his cutting of America's defense budget to where he has actually put the homeland in danger. And let's NEVER forget the more than 3,500 American troops who died in Iraq ...along with those who came home anything but whole...and add in all the American treasure spent to help free a country from terrorist groups like ISIS who are now basically in control. 

And what of Obama's foreign policy agenda itself...it would be quite laughable if it wasn't actually more dangerous...extremely more dangerous...to America's national security and to the health, safety, and welfare of 'We the People' than that of any previous president's foreign policy agendas for this man's foreign policy agenda...or should I say lack of a true agenda...is one that has calculatingly and with malice succeeded in attacking our nation's sense of well-being. Now we are forced to constantly look over our shoulders because instead of attacking our enemies with strength and fortitude...instead of keeping our enemies 'over there'...this man has placated said enemies so that they are now 'over here' as well...welcomed to enter through our still unsecured southern border by a man who daily works to implode America from within...that is in between rounds of golf  I should say.

And what of America's enemies...especially the enemy called ISIS...an islamic...YES islamic...enemy that our civilized minds still cannot totally comprehend. And it took ISIS to finally get Obama's attention of sorts but only after they beheaded two innocents of our own...and only after 'We the People' showed outward revulsion, anger, and disgust. Finally addressing in his usual limited and superficial sort of way the savagery of those who are his brethren...this most miserable excuse of a president still continues to allow ISIS to relish in beheading Christians and other minorities as he, for the most part, remains silent or gives mere lip-service to all the atrocities they do.

And ISIS counts on this for Obama's silence is indeed deafening NOT just towards their brutality, but also towards Russia's aggression in Ukraine as well as towards China's military build-up and surging to the forefront economy. And that deafening silence can also be heard towards both Iran moving forward with its uranium enrichment program on their way to becoming a nuclear power as well as his silence in defending Israel against her enemies for Israel's enemies are our enemies as well. And right now his silence is loudly screaming as our Marine remains languishing in a Mexican jail while he and his minions in the media keep us focused on a virus called Ebola.

And now with the November mid-terms less than two weeks away it's important to remember these things above all else for these are the things...the issues...the true politics and policies...that affect us all. These are the things that are on the ballot...the economy...jobs...ObamaCare...our unsecured southern border...ILLEGALS...amnesty... our military...a foreign  policy agenda that favors America's enemies...islamic terrorists from 'over there' now showing up 'over here'...the slaughter and savagery done against Christians, Jews, and any who do NOT believe in their false god known as allah... savages by the name of ISIS, al-Qaeda, and Khorasan...biological stealth jihad possibly in the guise of Ebola...the list is endless and almost all encompassing.

Almost I say because the social issues that some so like to shove in our faces...and by some I mean those who claim they're on our side but who are anything but...are NOT now nor must they be on November's ballot. Remember when you vote on November 4th that God is NOT on the ballot...turning America into an Evangelical theocracy that is so wanted by some, and I only say some, is NOT on November's ballot...abortion is NOT on November's ballot nor is the 'so-called' gay agenda. Putting these things and other so-called social issues on November's ballot will NOT turn the Senate RED...will NOT start to turn America to the right...will NOT bring us back to the law of the Constitution as our Founders intended, but instead will divide us even more and help to keep the Senate BLUE. 

And a BLUE Senate will be the death knoll for America as our Constitutional Republic will most assuredly fall by the wayside to be replaced by the socialistic policies and islamic politics of the man known as Barack HUSSEIN Obama...the enemy within that some 'supposedly' on our side will have willingly allowed NOT to be stopped.
